Aside from not putting a slip sheet under the tray I can't really see anything wrong with that. Then again I am not an installer so maybe there is some glaring thing I am missing.

Very Observant!

Those of you who install Non penetrating mounts on low slope membrane roofs, a slip sheet is very important.

Here's why!

Same mount as pictured before. These can and do move a bit. .45 mil rubber membrane doesn't put up much resistance by itself. The slip sheet (usually just another sheet of rubber under the mount) moves with the mount and slides across the weatherproofing membrane avoiding these kinds of holes and leaks.

I guess he doesn't know or ran out of the special brace collars for the intl mast. Now that they don't get shipped with the monopoles anymore.Should have used self tapping screws. Or the included monopoles.

We don't get the 1.75 anymore since they came up with those new monopoles.He could've flipped the mast the other way and taken out the colars of the monopoles ,and used the existing hole,bolt that came with the kit.

Guess it's just lack of training. But I'm sure there are many markets where international dishes are barely ever installed.
